An article by the 9to5 guys generally says Apple has no interest in settling the case even if Samsung removed all the offending features that Apple claims as theirs (the apparent "secret" Samsung offer). They simply don't want the Tab sold under any circumstances whether it infringes or not, if the article is accurate.

I thinks so. Apple does not want to settle with Samsung in any circumstances, even if Samsung removes features Apple bring in the court. They will find ways to prevent GT sales in Australia where seems to be listening Apple more. It is not about infringing patents, it is about monopoly, IMO. I hate Apple in this regards.

I'm curious if Samsung's shot across the bow regarding the iPhone 4S in Europe might give Apple renewed interest in settling this. Classic IP litigation: I show you my portfolio, you show me yours and we'll see who's got the bigger stack.
